Game bar parry audio issue

Hello AndrewW99,

Thank you for confirming, we should be able to rule out it being a headset error. When you can reset the Game Bar, please let me know if it resolves the error or if you are still experiencing the same issue.

Thanks!

Hello AndrewW99,

Thank you for your response. In this case, let's start with a few troubleshooting suggestions that I'll list below. If you have not done so already, please view Troubleshoot Xbox Game Bar on Windows before continuing forward.

Suggestion One: View Repair apps and programs in Windows for steps on how to reset/repair applications on your Windows device. In this case, I would recommend Xbox Game Bar.

Suggestion Two: Ensure that your software and drivers are up to date. To do this, please view How to get software and driver updates for Windows devices then restart your device and try again.

If the suggestions above do not resolve the issue, please try another headset (if you have access to one) to see if you are receiving the same error. I'd like to figure out if it's a headset issue, device audio issue, etc.

Additionally, have you attempted to use this same headset on other audio platforms such as Discord, in-game chat, or mobile? If so, have you experienced similar issues?

Looking forward to your response.

It does not happen in discord now that you mention it. I can blast my headphones in discord and nobody ever says anything just game bar. I can try resetting it like you said.

Hello AndrewW99,

Thank you for contacting the Xbox Support forums. I understand that your friends are able to hear your in-game audio when you are using party chat. Before I try to assist further, can you please let me know what model headset you are using? Additionally, can you let me know which troubleshooting fixes you have already attempted?

Thank you and I look forward to your response,

I own a hyper X revolver headset. I've tried just about everything I could in the game bar options in windows messing with just about every audio option in windows settings and game bar settings. It doesn't even say my mic is active but they say they can hear my spotify and game audio about like it's being played through the mic but the mic doesn't say it's picking anything up. I'm pretty sure adjusting my volume lower helps but I have it to the point where my headset is almost off on my splitter and they say they can still hear it.
